I’ve been having this weird issue for a while now. All of my samples are on an external (Sabrent) SSD where I keep all my sounds and sample libraries. So far I have had no complaints at all with this drive. It is working just fine.
But every once in a while, I get this weird error when Cubase or Nuendo just doesn’t import the full-length audio file when I pull it from the mediabay, finder or sidebar. (see screenshot)
Top file: I physically copied this file into my project folder and then re-imported the file.
Bottom file: the original audio file that Cubase/Nuendo refuses to read normally.
I have since then re-scanned all my directories multiple times to mitigate this problem. Even went so far and cleaned the pool, then re-scanned, then re-imported - still an incomplete chunk.
The only way is making a physical copy like described above.
Thank you for looking into this.
